What is going on with Travis Kelce?
After suffering their first loss of the season in Week 12, the Chiefs have rebounded to win two games in a row after defeating the Las Vegas Raiders 19-17 on Black Friday.
The former Cincinnati Bearcats player had a good day, hauling in seven catches for 68 yards while his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, was in attendance at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium.
Unfortunately for Travis Kelce, he would be blasted for his actions after his team won the game and secured a playoff spot.
As soon as the game was over, the vast majority of players came out on the field to greet their opposition, but Kelce was nowhere to be found.
Cameras saw him halfway to the locker room, as most players hadn’t even started shaking hands yet.

Fans hated everything about what he did and firmly lasted the Chiefs tight end on social media.
“Travis Kelce continues to put the ass in class. Didn’t shake hands after the game. Straight to the locker room. Probably went to get friendship bracelets for the refs. Just retire already loser. Your concussed head is clearly not in it,” one fan said.
“Kelce is making an effort to be the least likeable player in the NFL,rookie TE on the other side has a great game,the longtime vet cant even go tell the kid good game,just wants to be the 1st one into the locker room,maybe he has another game show to host,” another X user stated.
“Kelce was almost in the locker room before Mahomes even shook O’Connell’s hand at midfield. Something is definitely off. Why wasn’t he with his team celebrating the clinching of a playoff berth?” one fan pondered.
“Career High 5 sacks on Patrick Mahomes sheesh. lol Ya’ll see Travis Swiftie Kelce go straight to the locker room? He’s mad @brockbowers17 is by far better than him. Rookie dropped another game of triple digits receiving yards! We got so many injuries and still almost beat the Chiefs,” another user said.
“Kelce immediately into the Locker Room. No hand shakes today,” one guy stated.
“Damn Kelce already in the locker room,” another person stated.
“pu–y ass kelce walkin to the locker room already,” a vulgar fan added.
Travis Kelce Has Not Been Himself
The 2024 NFL season has produced a different Travis Kelce.
There have been games in which Kelce has looked like himself, but there have been many more in which it does not seem that he and Patrick Mahomes are on the same page.
While he is making the catches and racking up yards, Kelce seems to be well on his way to the lowest touchdown total of his career.
Currently, Kelce has 75 catches for 637 yards and just two touchdowns.
Kansas City Chiefs President Forced To Address Rumors That Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce’s Relationship Is Just A “Marketing Strategy” For The Team

There’s a conspiracy theory for just about everything, including bizarre ones relating to the highly publicized relationship between Grammy Award-winning singer Taylor Swift and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.
The three-time Super Bowl champion has been in a relationship with Taylor Swift for over a year. Their rumored romance was confirmed when Swift attended the Chiefs’ Week 3, 2023 home game against the Chicago Bears at Arrowhead Stadium.
Kelce’s romance with Swfit has been a giant win for the Chiefs and the NFL, too. She has brought plenty more attention to the NFL and contributed to the Chiefs’ skyrocketing popularity worldwide.
Naturally, conspiracy theorists believe the Travis Kelce-Taylor Swift romance is simply a marketing ploy to help the Chiefs and the league. But Chiefs president Mark Donovan finally addressed the ridiculous rumor during an appearance on NBC’s “Squawk Box” program:
“I’d love to say that it was a marketing strategy, but it is an authentic relationship. And we’re happy to have it, and it’s been nothing but good for us.
I think the best thing I can say about the whole relationship and the impact it’s had on us is, Taylor Swift is an authentic member of the Kansas City Chiefs kingdom. She’s an authentic fan and that matters to our fans and our fan base and to matters to us and we try to respect that.”
